I'm a Californian, and "love" is too strong of a word for what I feel about Newsom. He really pissed me off over some of his actions during COVID, and there's always the whole Kimberly Guilfoyle thing, which makes me seriously question his judgment. However, he has really stepped it up over the last few years and I have been impressed. He's definitely good at being a politician. Depending on who runs in the primaries I wouldn't have a problem supporting him, and if he's the nominee I will be all in.
